          Del Potro looks awesome atm in his match, might be a spot of value

            Yeah same channels we got in Spain last year. Not a HandyManny, Mr Moon, Mickey Mouse, Special Agent Oso etc got the baby. No Zach and Cody, Sonny with a Chance, Suite Life on Deck etc for the 2 kids so it didn't go down well!

            Just need Sky to cough up and give us our money and the next 3 months for free to save any hassle!

                        every top side in Europe is hoping someone else beats them before the CL final.

                                Comreg regulate Sky here.

                                    unfunny can only get cheap laughs by explaining that person X isn't as attractive as person Y and pathetic attempts to be down with the cool kids by laughing at disability etc. Pathetic human IMO he's not a comedian at all and should go get a grown ups job.

                                      A sad discovery today. Simona Halep, who just lost to Serena Williams, made the unfortunate decision to get breast reduction surgery. Spitting in the face of nature!

                                        But Murray at 5/1 is terrible value.

                                          in fairness to the Hurricane I'd rather back Del Potro than Murray ftw

                                          but anyway, I will leave my Murray-bashing until his inevitable QF\SF exit, punctuated by screams and anguished looks towards Mummy in the player's box

                                                    Of course a lot of those sorts of programs are just on permanent repeat so I'm sure a cousin of yours might have all of them already.

                                                        I think when trying to improve your team doing so with the aim of "bettering Barce" is a waste of time. They are an exception to competitive rule. We havnt seen a team like them in a number of years. Just look at the talent of the spain U21s at the moment, all of which cant get near the Barce team.
                                                        tldr: Barce gonna Barce

                                                        I think Young is a super signing for United. His composure on the ball and set piece delivery is very good. He can play off the top and will bring nice competition to the wing for United. ATM think he's better value than Jones

                                                        Henman Murray will always be underpriced for these events. The british public have a lovely disregard for money when it comes to their own.

                                                        England for the World Cup anyone?

                                                              have to say i never heard of this guy prior to he being mentioned on the bbv today, so i youtubed him and i was fairly dissapointed to say the least. in fact stand up comedy isn't stand up comedy anymore it is more like a guy walking around stage with a microphone in his hand just popping off onliners one after another. its not the guy is funny its his oneliners,as a matter of fact if you ask a random guy in the pub to read off a list of onliners he will have the pub in stitches. but ask him to do an impression of billy connelly, that blackguy in america that got accused of child molesting or even brendan grace and they can't, no matter what they will do it just won't sound right or even funny.

This guy has fascinated me for years, well just the whole thing about the winter hill gang and all that happened afterwards with him being top dog in Boston but also a grass for the FBI and then his brother being such a highly respected politician. And then how he evaded capture for so long despite being on the FBI's top ten most wanted all that time.

The game of tennis is far too imbalanced towards having a strong serve. Getting rid of the second serve would mean players would have to get every serve right, resulting in slower serves, more rallies, and a more balanced, exciting game. Aces would become rare again, and Andy Roddick would instantly drop 10 places in the world rankings.

The game of tennis is far too imbalanced towards having a strong serve. Getting rid of the second serve would mean players would have to get every serve right, resulting in slower serves, more rallies, and a more balanced, exciting game. Aces would become rare again, and Andy Roddick would instantly drop 10 places in the world rankings.
                                                                                                  feck it, they should get rid of the net and the lines while there at it.

Have had some spine tinglingly good moments teaching,moments which just leave you feeling so so positive.
